...so it doesn't matter what she would've wanted besides the $40,000. Kira leaves with $14,800 in cash.
In the final segment, Pat doesn't mean to get too philosophical, but life is about weighing your options! You have choices to make. His wise mother said that when you come to a fork in the road, be sure to take it. Just some words to live by.
